Atomizer posted:But Battlefield 5 is an exception, and multiple-minute load times are pretty excessive, to the point where it sounds like some optimization is in order. I mean if we're talking about a 2-minute load from a slow HDD at 100 MB/s, that's how many gigabytes to load a single level?!? Huge lols if you think big game publishers are going to spend time optimizing for HDD read performance when they're so lazy they sometimes won't even bother compressing audio any more.

Is the game really loading 12+ GB into RAM?! If we're talking about having to read a ton of small files, on the other hand, then that's potentially a game that would benefit from being on an SSD, but again, optimization is possible....

I've heard that SSDs can't be trusted to retain data when powered off for extended periods of time. How long would a system need to be powered off for before you would expect to start to see data degradation?

In my case, I've got a project system that I installed an OS on a few months ago, and then haven't been arsed to do anything further with; I didn't think it was likely that just a few months would lead to problems, and I could "easily" just reinstall at this stage anyway, but i did have the thought of "hmm, at what point have I let this thing sit too long that I really do need to wipe and reinstall" One other question out of curiosity - suppose you've got a worn SSD that spent long enough unpowered that it lost data. Is the flash media itself damaged at that point, or would the drive still behave properly?
